Platform connections

9 official connections. One review queue.

Connect the channels your brand uses through platform-supported authorization. Aboveboard prepares the draft, keeps a person in the decision, and publishes only after the right reviewer signs off.

Connected channels

Your publishing mix, without the tab switching

Each channel uses its official connection. The review experience stays consistent, while credit treatment follows the platform’s own cost model.

Growth attribution

What each platform lets us know — and how directly.

Aboveboard labels every link between a post and audience growth by the evidence the official platform makes available. We never make a stronger claim than the data supports.

Measured
The platform reports follower or subscriber changes against a post.
Derived
Exact follow events are joined to the time each post was published.
Estimated
Follower snapshots are correlated with post timing and performance.
  • Metered at publish

    X

    Official connection. X publishing draws credits at the displayed platform rate.

    Growth attribution Estimated

    X does not expose post-level follows. Estimates use follower snapshots and paid read metrics when you enable them.

  • Publishing included

    LinkedIn

    Official connection. Publishing itself draws no credits; drafting and research are metered separately.

    Growth attribution Estimated

    Growth reporting is available for organisation pages; personal profiles do not expose follower data.

  • Publishing included

    Instagram

    Official connection. Publishing itself draws no credits; drafting and research are metered separately.

    Growth attribution Measured

    Instagram backfills follower gains for accounts that meet its eligibility threshold; historical unfollows are unavailable, and smaller accounts receive a posts-only report.

  • Publishing included

    Threads

    Official connection. Publishing itself draws no credits; drafting and research are metered separately.

    Growth attribution Estimated

    Threads provides follower snapshots rather than post-level follows, so attribution is estimated.

  • Publishing included

    TikTok

    Official connection. Publishing itself draws no credits; drafting and research are metered separately.

    Growth attribution Measured

    Measured attribution requires the platform’s free Business-account switch; official peer reads are not available.

  • Connection + channel stats

    YouTube

    Read-only official connection. Aboveboard displays the connected channel’s current statistics; it does not upload or publish YouTube videos.

    Growth attribution Measured

    The connection is read-only: Aboveboard fetches available statistics for the full channel and video history but does not upload or publish videos. Analysis of previously published media remains optional and is priced before it runs.

  • Publishing included

    Reddit

    Official connection. Publishing itself draws no credits; drafting and research are metered separately.

    Growth attribution Estimated

    Reddit exposes engagement and subscriber snapshots, not post-level follows.

  • Publishing included

    Bluesky

    Official connection. Publishing itself draws no credits; drafting and research are metered separately.

    Growth attribution Derived

    Follow events are joined to post timing, so the result is labeled Derived rather than Measured.

  • Publishing included

    Mastodon

    Official connection. Publishing itself draws no credits; drafting and research are metered separately.

    Growth attribution Estimated

    Mastodon exposes public engagement and follower snapshots, not post-level follows.

The X exception

A platform charge, shown where it happens

8 platform APIs add no per-action publishing charge. X does, and a post with a link costs more. Aboveboard meters those charges separately instead of hiding them in every plan.

Plain X post 1 credit
X post with a link 8 credits

Review first, everywhere

The destination changes. The stop before publishing does not.

Aboveboard uses one explicit path from connection to publication, so adding another channel does not remove the judgement step.

  1. 01

    Connect deliberately

    Choose a channel and complete that platform’s supported authorization flow. The connection belongs to the workspace and stays visible to the people who manage it.

  2. 02

    Draft for the destination

    Aboveboard prepares a platform-specific draft against the voice, audience and rules you set. Drafting and research use their published credit prices.

  3. 03

    Review in one queue

    Edit, reject or approve without jumping between platform tabs. Editors can prepare content; reviewers make the publishing decision.

  4. 04

    Publish what was approved

    Only the approved version is sent to the connected account you chose. Changing a draft sends it back through review.

Official means official

No scraping. No browser automation. No hidden workaround.

Aboveboard connects through the interfaces platforms provide for software. It does not imitate a person inside a logged-in browser or reuse a browser session behind your back.

Authorization
Use the platform’s supported connection flow.
Access
Keep each connection attached to the workspace that owns it.
Publishing
Send only the version a permitted reviewer approved.

Start with one channel

See whether the workflow earns your trust.

The Free plan includes the complete loop on 1 channel: sources, opportunities, drafts, review and publishing. Use the included 60 credits for roughly 15 post drafts, or mix smaller actions. No card required.
